What’s the experience like?

The air in Naples that morning was thick with the scent of fresh espresso drifting out from the little bars near the arrivals hall. Our driver—Antonio, I think—was waiting right by the exit, holding up my name. No confusion, no rush. He took my bag straight away and led me to a spotless Mercedes parked just outside. The WiFi kicked in as soon as we got settled, which was handy for sending a quick message home.

The drive out of Naples is always a bit lively—horns, scooters weaving through traffic—but once we hit the highway toward Pompeii, things calmed down. It’s about 45 minutes if you don’t get caught behind a tour bus. Antonio pointed out Mount Vesuvius looming on our left; you can’t miss it on clear days. He dropped us right at the main entrance of Pompeii and promised to keep an eye on our luggage while we explored.

Inside the ruins, you’re free to wander at your own pace for two hours. I lost track of time poking around ancient stone streets and peeking into old bakeries where you can still see the ovens. There’s this faint smell of dust and wild herbs in the air—hard to describe but unforgettable. When our time was up, Antonio was waiting exactly where he said he’d be. From there, it was a smooth ride along winding coastal roads until Sorrento came into view, all lemon trees and pastel buildings stacked above the sea.
